[PATCH] sstate.bbclass: binutils-cross is not a safe dependency

[Mike Crowe <mac@mcrowe.com>]

gcc always needs binutils in order to be useful. If binutils-cross is
considered to be a safe dependency then gcc-cross can be reconstructed into
the sysroot without binutils. Anyone who tries to use the compiler will end
up using the system binutils which is either a bad thing (relying on system
tools) or a very bad thing (it will be for the wrong architecture.)

In the absence of a better fix let's just stop binutils-cross being
considered a safe dependency. The downside of this is that any
reconstructing any other recipe that depends on binutils from the sstate
cache will also cause binutils to be reconstructed.

I tried and failed to come up with a better fix for this problem. This
fix at least means that everything will build using the correct
version of binutils even if slightly more files are reconstructed from
the sstate cache than would be desirable.
